Britannia Britannia said: " A classic fantasy series with a plot that is both epic and heart wrenching. This one has it all, betrayal, love, hate, war, drama, and just about everything else. Fitz is the anti-hero that you want to love, with enough flaws to make him real and pai ...more "

N.K. Jemisin
“But for a society buit on exploitation, there is no greater threat than having no one left to oppress.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Stone Sky

Brandon Sanderson
“Somehow, we'll find it. The balance between whom we wish to be and whom we need to be. But for now, we simply have to be satisfied with who we are.”
Brandon Sanderson, The Hero of Ages

Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“Have you no respect for the past? For what was thought and believed by your foremothers?”
“Why, no,” she said. “Why should we? They are all gone. They knew less than we do. If we are not beyond them, we are unworthy of them—and unworthy of the children who must go beyond us.”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Herland

Walter M. Miller Jr.
“Listen, are we helpless? Are we doomed to do it again and again and again? Have we no choice but to play the Phoenix in an unending sequence of rise and fall? Assyria, Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Carthage, Rome, the Empires of Charlemagne and the Turk: Ground to dust and plowed with salt. Spain, France, Britain, America—burned into the oblivion of the centuries. And again and again and again. Are we doomed to it, Lord, chained to the pendulum of our own mad clockwork, helpless to halt its swing? This time, it will swing us clean to oblivion.”
Walter M. Miller Jr., A Canticle for Leibowitz

N.K. Jemisin
“But there are none so frightened, or so strange in their fear, as conquerors. They conjure phantoms endlessly, terrified that their victims will someday do back what was done to them—even if, in truth, their victims couldn’t care less about such pettiness and have moved on. Conquerors live in dread of the day when they are shown to be, not superior, but simply lucky.”
N.K. Jemisin, The Stone Sky
